This seems to be a misconception. I let you try the following scenario:
At the same time
* start "mvn clean verify -Dmultile-to-repo.includeSources=true" on 
jbosstools-target-platforms/jbosstools/multiple
* Import TP in workspace and click "Set as Target Platform", or (often 
better) go to Preferences > PDE > Target-Platform, select the new TP and 
click "Apply"
The first one to finish is declared winner.

 From my place, IDE takes about 15 minutes to have TP loaded (I tried 3 
times), whereas I started mirroring with Maven 50 minutes ago and it's 
still running.

That's true. But since mirroring takes more than 3 times more time, then 
it's the same time to update TP in 3 different workspace. There is no 
time saved by mirroring TP with Maven except if you're using it in more 
that 4 workspace.

> It often fails
I wish you would report it when it happens, so we can find out the 
reason and hopefully fix it.


So I confirm and insist that I still (and will probably always) 
recommend using directly .target in IDE, because it's simpler and more 
efficient.
